  • 12.4.2.19 Viewpoint 19 – Guinness Storehouse Existing View the Guinness Storehouse Is Amongst Ireland's Most Visited Tourist
    North Lotts Planning Scheme Draft Amendment No 1 - EIS 12.4.2.19 Viewpoint 19 – Guinness Storehouse Existing View The Guinness Storehouse is amongst Ireland’s most visited tourist attractions. The bar affords a panoramic view over the complex city roofscape towards Dublin Bay. Howth Head is prominent in the distance. The extensive, intricate skyline is punctuated by several exceptionally tall structures, most notably the Poolbeg chimneys, and St. Patrick’s and Christchurch Cathedrals amongst others. Several more recent secular buildings are also prominent in the view including Liberty Hall and the pyramid-topped office complex at Tara Street. Although not remarkably high, the IFSC complex is prominent, and along with Liberty Hall and Tara Street it forms a distinct character area albeit relatively limited in extent in the context. Proposed Change The proposed high building will punctuate the horizon formed by Howth Head and would take its place amongst the taller structures in the city. Its relative proximity to the cluster of modern buildings including Liberty Hall, the IFSC and the Tara Street buildings will contribute to the emerging character area. Its height, although less than the Poolbeg chimneys and the taller cathedrals, will render the building a landmark in the urban structure of the city. It will not however detract from their prominence since precedents for landmark modern buildings exist, with no apparent negative effect. In this view the proposed building will form an effective marker of the eastern limit of the city centre, contributing to the legibility of the urban structure. Visual Impact The prominent city centre location affords amongst the broadest views of the city, and is a popular tourist attraction.

  • Archive Fact Sheet: St. James's Gate
    Archive Fact Sheet: St. James’s Gate 19th century representation of entrance to St. James’s Gate Brewery Traditionally, St. James's Gate lay just outside the walls of the medieval city of Dublin. The Gate was the city’s western customs house where tolls (taxes) were collected by the city officials from people entering the city of Dublin. Everyone who wanted to enter Dublin city from the south and the west, had to enter the city through this gate. The area has always been associated with St. James and the holy well of St. James lay next to the Gate. (There has been a church of St. James near the Front Gate since the 1100s). St. James's Gate was also the start of a pilgrimage to Compostella in Spain and pilgrims from all over Ireland used to gather on this site to start the journey to Spain. The medieval gate of St. James was demolished in 1734, 25 years before Arthur Guinness took over the Brewery on the site. However, the Front Gate of the Guinness Brewery as we know it today, stands very near the site of the original St. James's Gate.

  • Coopering Process
    1 Archive Fact Sheet: Cooperage Coopers at St. James’s Gate Brewery, 1890 GDB/DB06/0049 Background Information The craft of ‘coopering’ involves the manufacture of wooden casks. Various hand tools were used with great skill to fashion wooden ‘staves’ (long thin curved individual sections) which were then fastened together with metal hoops forming different sizes of cask, or wooden vessels such as pails and churns. Coopering has been practised for many centuries and is still practised in some parts of the world today. Those who make the casks are known as ‘Coopers’. There are three main categories of coopering known as white, dry and wet. White coopering involves the manufacture of pails, butter churns, tubs and other household utensils for daily use. Dry coopering involves the manufacture of casks for holding dry goods such as flour, tobacco or vegetables.

  • Brewing Connections
    Madeline Hayes 522344 Place, Culture and Tourism Master Thesis Paper BREWING Erasmus University, Rotterdam School of History, Culture and Communication Supervisor: Annaclaudia Martini CONNECTIONS June 2020 Understanding Place Attachment in Brewery Tourism Brewing Connections: Understanding Place Attachment in Brewery Tourism Title image retrieved from: CraftBeer.com (2017) Abstract: In an increasingly globalizing world, cities, regions and brands are recognizing the importance of creating a unique identity to sustain their relevance and escape homogenization. Many humans are also feeling threats of losing their ability to define and express their self-identities and often look towards travel as a way of (re)discovering the essence of their true selves (Wang, 1999). Often these travelers are seeking authentic interaction (MacCannell, 1976), a place for self-expression (Wang, 1999), and, at times, the ability to positively impact their host community (Schnell, 2013). Since drinking spaces have often been seen as a frame of reference for the set of practices that constitutes a beer culture-rituals, traditions, social interactions, specific aesthetics, and a sense of community and are vehicles to express shared values, meanings and interests (Gammelgaard & Dörrenbächer, 2013), it is possible that visitors to a brewery experience can achieve their travel goals. This thesis researches the question, How can visiting a brewery experience affect a visitor’s formation of place attachment to the location? And the sub-question How can perceived authenticity increase this feeling of place attachment? Theoretical background research on place attachment, authenticity, neolocalism, sociality and sharing, heritage and storytelling, and how breweries shape their communities compared relevant investigations to create a framework for my study.

  • Brewery Railway and Locomotives
    Archive Fact Sheet: The Brewery Railway and Locomotives St. James’s Gate Brewery c.1920 GDB/BR14/0014.59 In 1873 the Brewery grew substantially in size when the Company purchased land lying between James's Street and the River Liffey. This land provided access to the River Liffey (and from there to Dublin Port), and also to Kingsbridge Station (renamed Sean Heuston Station in 1966) - the main terminus of the Great Southern and Western Railway and link to the Irish rail network. This divided the Brewery in two creating an ‘upper’ level and a ‘lower’ level separated by James’s Street. Several departments were moved to the new ‘lower level’ including the Cooperage, washing and filling sheds. However, it became more and more difficult to move materials around the much larger site with horse-power alone. The Company’s solution was to construct a railway. The Brewery’s newly appointed Engineer-in-Chief, Samuel Geoghegan, oversaw its construction. If you have any further questions about the history of Guinness please contact us at: Guinness Archive, GUINNESS STOREHOUSE®, St. James's Gate, Dublin 8 Telephone: +353 1 471 4557, Email: [email protected] Opening Hours: Mon – Fri 09:30 to 17:00 by appointment The GUINNESS® and GUINNESS STOREHOUSE® words and associated logos are trade marks In designing the railway, two difficulties had to be overcome. Firstly, the track needed to be narrow enough to navigate through the Brewery, but a connection was still needed to the broad gauge track in Kingsbridge. The solution was to lay two different types of track - a 22” narrow gauge system for working within the Brewery boundaries, and a 5ft 3in broad gauge system to link to Kingsbridge.

  • Arthur Guinness Was Born from Humble Beginnings on September 24, 1725 in Celbridge, County Kildare, Ireland
    The chronicles of Arthur Guinness, founder of a world‐famous beer: Arthur Guinness was born from humble beginnings on September 24, 1725 in Celbridge, County Kildare, Ireland. He inherited 100 pounds in 1752, which is approximately 21,000 U.S. dollars (2019) from his godfather, the Church of Ireland Archbishop of Cashel Arthur Price legacy. Arthur at age 27 used it to set up his own ale small scale brewery in Leixlip, County Kildare. At age 34 his floundering brewing business was moved to the capital of Ireland, Dublin. Arthur found an old dilapidated brewery and was able to sign a 9000‐year lease on December 31, 1759 for four acres at St. James Gate. Note, the lease was voided when the company purchased 50 more acres. <guinness.com> In 1761 Arthur married Olivia Whitmore. The couple had 21 children (10 survived into adulthood). <thrillist.com> The family lived in Beaumont House on a 51‐acre estate in County Dublin. In 1767 he was elected Master of the Dublin Corporation of Brewers, and by 1769 he was exporting his ale beer to England and his business began to grow. <guinness.com> In 1799 porter beer became popular in London and Ireland. Arthur stops brewing ale and moves to perfecting a stout black (ruby red) beer with creamy foam. (The tint comes from roasted barley and you can see the tint if you hold your pint up into the light.) (The foam comes from being low in carbon dioxide and high in nitrogen.) "Guinness was a Protestant, a Unionist and against Home Rule." He was also for reducing a tax on beer; hence he supported an Irish politician and member of the Irish House of Commons who campaigned for the Irish Parliament during the 1780s and 1790s.<irishcentral.com> He was a supporter of social welfare, donating to charities, Gaelic arts, supporting Irish identity and advocating for tolerance regarding polarizing communities through religion.
